Description
Featured here are Stalin and Hitler. Russian authorities banned the series from the 2007 Kandinsky Prize Competition (intended for the "best Russian work"). Alexander Sokolov, the Minister of Culture, also refused to allow the works to be exhibited in the 2007 exhibition of Russian Art in Paris, claiming the series would "bring shame to Russia." (Moscow Times, 14 November 2008). The Blue Noses group consists of the Siberian artists Viacheslav Mizin, Alexander Shaburov, Dmitry Bulnygin, and Konstantin Skotnikov.
